Vuse in the Pukekohe Coart today, when tilling him £4 for a breach of the Cinema Films Act. Sergeant J. T. Cowan said a constable visited the Bombay Hall recently and found Vose showing pictures when not licensed to do so. The department had advised that it had experienced considerable trouble with defendant at other centres, and a warning had been issued. Defendant was obliged to have a licence for each hall in which he screened pictures. For the defence. Mr. S. D. Rice said Vose had been screening pictures for a number of years and had always obtained licences. On October 7 he had forwarded applications for licences and five days later forwarded the forms and fees to Wellington. The licences for all halls were received on November 2.
